Measure Elapsed Time with the Convenience Timer

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.StartTiming, which starts or restarts the object's convenience timer. The ElapsedSeconds property then reports the whole number of seconds since the call.

Dim socket As New Chilkat.Socket

//  Start (or restart) the object's convenience timer.
socket.StartTiming 

//  Perform some work.  (Here the thread simply sleeps to let time pass.)
socket.SleepMs 1500

//  Read the whole number of seconds elapsed since StartTiming was called.
System.DebugLog("Elapsed seconds: " + Str(socket.ElapsedSeconds))
